What an amazing thriller! Absolutely loved it; every roller coaster moment of it. This book was full of surprises, and there was no boring moment. I highly recommend it.

With thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for the ARC.
The Couple by Sarah Mitchell is one of those books that the reader absolutely loves when reading or doesn’t like it because none of the main characters have any redeeming features that the reader can identify with. I am afraid that I just couldn’t identify with any of the characters. I think some readers could really enjoy the book. Sadly the book wasn’t one of my favourite reads.

This book made it to my list of best books so far for this year. Absolute page turned of a book guaranteed to keep you up past bedtime. Not to be missed.

This book was such a thriller, I couldn't put it down. This is a story about a couple that get married and live happily ever happy. Or at least thats what Claire (the wife) hopes for. She soon starts to become suspicious of her husbands activities and where about. She later starts seeing people following her that look familiar. The is a turn paging book that will leave you thirsty to find the ending.

Many thanks to Sarah Mitchell and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review this book. The Couple is an exciting fast past book. Be prepared to dedicate some time to this read as it is hard to put down. It kept me guessing till the end too. Totally enjoyed it.

I really liked this book yet found that it was hard to follow at different parts. Claire and Angus have stepped away from the home that they originally were going to purchase to buy a house from Mark. Claire ends up getting involved with Mark and finds that things are just not what they seem. She has to figure out whether to trust herself ad her track record, or trust the man she loves. Thanks for the ARC, Net Galley.

The Couple is a psychological thriller by Sarah Mitchell and I have to say I really enjoyed reading it.

It’s written from two perspectives, the past and the present giving deeper insight into the protagonist and the characters.

I have to say I didn’t find any of the characters particularly likeable but I’m sure that’s the point and a credit to the authors clever writing.

Claire works for the Immigration Service and is now engaged after a whirlwind romance, to Angus…He is a hotel entrepreneur and they are about to buy their perfect home together.

Claire goes to view a house they like and meets Mark, the seller, but he looks familiar to her, and reminds her of a former lover……as a result Claire is drawn to him, then Angus starts to behave a bit oddly…..Can Claire trust either of them or even herself?

Sarah Mitchell’s writing is creative and expressive and this tale is a twisty, turny, fast paced ride. I really enjoyed it and can recommend it to all lovers of a psychological thriller.

I would like to thank the Author/Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book for free in exchange for a fair, honest and unbiased review.

There were a few storylines in this book, and it's almost like they were written in different voices. Some great twists but overall not for me.

Free copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I really enjoyed this book even though I found the characters a bit unlikable. Claire marries a man, Angus, after a quick courtship, but is attracted to Mark, who they are buying a house from. There are so many twists and turns that when you think you know what's going on, your wrong.

A deeply dark story that takes you feel into the suburban criminal underground.

As the story twists and turns to a somewhat unexpected end you can't tell what will happen next.

The Couple was well written with some great unexpected twists throughout. A great page turner that I really enjoyed.

Amazing. I loved this book from the beginning to the end. This book had me on the edge of my seat on more than one occasion.

This book had some amazing twists at the end which I didn’t expect
A fantastic book

I wasn’t the biggest fan of this book. I am usually a fan of stories with a dual timeline, but this one didn’t seem to work for me – it was a little too choppy and hard to follow. It took forever for me to get into the book, which is a sure sign I’m not going to love it. The characters were well written but I just didn’t connect well with them. I did manage to finish this book and while it was not for me, I am sure others will enjoy it.

Thanks to Netgalley for this book! There is an awful lot going on in this story, following Claire whom seems torn between several men, one who seems to be dead but she can't forget, one she's engaged to but doesn't seem to sure, and one that is a fling with complications. I have to admit it was often confusing, especially the constant looks back at her life with Dan, who seemed liked a real loser! I did finish it, and it made a little more sense once it was all over, but quite a trial getting there! (le

The picture perfect lie...this kept running through my mind as I devoured this story.

The Couple is a well-executed psychological domestic thriller.

In a market saturated with domestic insanity, The Couple was a breath of diabolically fresh air.

The characters are atrociously realistic - true depictions of what we see in real life. I loved them! (Note to reader: If you are seeking perfectly sound characters, who make wise decisions, stop reading now. This book isn't for you, as you will hate everyone.)

While it fits the current literary trend to dive into the psyche of the mentally ill, The Couple is not for the 'light' reader, as the tale demands your attention. There are phenomenal twists that can easily be missed, or confused as an editing error, if the narrative is not followed closely.

Highly recommended for readers who enjoyed The Wife Between Us.

Thanks Netgalley and the Publisher. The Perfect Couple seems to have it all but things are not always as they seem. This was a great read from start to finish. Highly recommend

Fast paced page turner. Some aspects of the book felt unbelievable e.g. the relationships between Claire and Angus. I enjoyed the twists which were surprising, although did take a bit of flipping back to understand fully what had happened. However, overall it fits into the good psychological thriller category and worth a read.

I have been searching awhile now for a book that would give me a good shocking twist, and this book delivered! I love alternating timelines because I think it really adds to the suspense. This story kept me guessing the whole time, but I was not even close with my guesses, and that makes me a very satisfied reader!

Interesting book , a few twists and turns with fairly likeable characters but as soon as her career was mentioned I knew what was going to happen, not a bad book though

So my brutally honest review is that it shouldn’t be taken too seriously! I had read so many negative reviews I was really put off reading it - but I loved it! Totally unbelievable - but I like that in a book some times! I thought I had mis read the big twist, but upon re-reading it I discovered it really was that shocking!! Cleverly written, in fact I think Sarah Mitchell has an exceptional talent! Yes Claire was stupid and annoying, but when you realise why it all makes sense!
I struggled to put this down and suggest if you want a well written, clever, original book that’s a bit far fetched then pick it up!
